So how does one manage keybindings across multiple controllers in FSX? Do you go through each contorller in the drop down list and add/remove the keybindings you want that one to handle?

The key problem I'm trying to solve right now is I've got a Warthog HOTAS, CH Throttle quadrant and a CH Yoke currently plugged in. I'm using the HOTAS for DCS, the throttle quadrant for the P-47 (so many levers...) and wanted to use the CH yoke for FSX GA aircraft, however, the way FSX seem to have set things up by default, among other things, I appear to have multiple axis controlling the mixture, and I'm not entirely sure which ones it has auto-bound. Needless to say, having different axis popping in and setting key controls to, say, idle cut-off, unexpectedly does pose some issues.

Recommendations? How do people typically trace what's been bound where?

Thank you,

I have the controllers disabled in FSX and do everything through FSUIPC. 

I have the registered version and assign my axes through profiles.  A profile is linked to one or more aircraft and each profile can have different assignments. 

You can do buttons and switches also, but I have some aircraft that had issues with that so my button assignments tend to be for universal functions.

I'm not sure if the free version offers the same functionality.

Lorby "AxisAndOhs" does this for free.

I typically unbind every axis in the sim's control menu, and then make assignments in FSUIPC, using the Joynames feature to establish persistent assignment of a joystick even when it's removed and later re-connected.
